In this work the nanocrystalline TiO2 thin films doped with vanadium in amount of 19 at.% and 23 at.% prepared by magnetron sputtering method have been presented. The transmission measurements shows that V-doped TiO2 thin films were transparent in ca. 81% in the visible range of light spectrum. On the basis of electrical examinations it was found that fabricated TiO2:V thin films are semiconductors at room temperature and have different type of electrical conduction depending on the amount of vanadium dopant applied.
